GLASTONBURY — Retired police officer Jay Kehoe and wildlife rehabilitator Jenny Nord will present a program on the town's timber rattlesnake population and other snakes Wednesday.

The presentation will take place at the Connecticut Audubon Center at Glastonbury. Kehoe, a retired police lieutenant, has had to remove dozens of rattlesnakes from yards across town. Kehoe will talk about his stories and teach participants about rattlesnake habits, identification and dens. Nord will bring a variety of different snakes including some that are looking to be adopted.

Call the center at 860-633-8402 to register. The program is $7 for members and $10 for non-members. Walk-ins are welcome.
